Have been to loads of places but Still more places in the UK I want to visit or revisit. I’ve never been to Scotland so that’s at the top of my list, …would also like to visit London again as its been quite a few years since I’ve been there (got lost last time). Slapton sands in Devon is at the top of my list as well, ..was going to go there last year but had to cancel at the last minute. Any other scenic places in the UK that you can recommend?

If you're in Cornwall/Devon anyway (mentioned above), St Ives and surrounding area is well worth a visit. A particular favourite of mine in the UK is the Scottish Highlands - the remote glens north of Inverness are spectacular.

Hmm, bit off topic, but I did a rally earlier in the year sponsored by Clwydian Cars (and noticed you're from Clwyd, don't know if there's a link) over at Trawsfynydd Ranges, that anywhere near you, cos if it is it's a cool place.

Hadn't heard of it til you just mentioned it so I googled it, and yeah it's within about a 30-40 min drive away from me but it's not somewhere i'm familiar with sorry.

Ah well, it's pretty nice, of course I saw most of it from inside the rally car Very Happy

Ah yeah, it does look rather scenic. That rallying malarky is all a bit scary for me though. Embarassed

Definitely scenic and a nice part of the country to be sure, but that's definitely the best way to see it, with your foot to the floor
